Chapter 42 Lack of Manpower
On the same day, Carl wrote to Nick and Louise to inquire about it.
Then, early Monday morning, at breakfast, Carl had just finished breakfast, and Hela appeared in the sky above the auditorium.
Hovering in the sky for a moment, then fluttering its wings and landing in front of him.
As soon as it fell, it attracted the attention of many people, and some girls even screamed.
Over the past year, Hela's body has grown a lot.
Now, her wingspan has exceeded one and a half meters, I don't know how much larger than an ordinary owl, a pair of eagle eyes, looking forward to it, extremely handsome.
Of course, in the eyes of some girls, this is a little too fierce.
Tuck Wing stood on the table in the auditorium, and from the side, Hela was even a little taller than Carl sitting at the table, and stood out from the crowd compared to the other owls who came to deliver letters.
Ignoring the whispers of the others in the auditorium, Karl removed the letter from Hela's feet and straightened her feathers, who pecked him lightly with his mouth, picked up a piece of pie from the table, flapped his wings and flew away.
Karl opened the letter and saw the familiar handwriting on it:
Dear Carl,
Sorry dear, I didn't discuss this with you.
Your dad and I used the dividends from your game, plus a little more, to help you buy a majority of the shares of Jokowi's joke shop, and since you are underage, we made the decision for you.
We thought you should go to school at your current age, and we wanted to wait until you became an adult to tell you about these things, but you didn't expect to find out for yourself.
You don't have to worry about anything, your dad and I have taken care of everything, and Jokowi is still in charge of running the joke shop, you just need to continue to study hard.
Of course, if conditions permit, you can also pay a little attention to the research and development of Hearthstone, but don't take it as a burden, everything is up to me and your father, we don't want you to deal with money too early.
If you need money, write to us and we'll send it to you.
Don't read it.
Love your Louise.
Folding the letter and putting it in his arms, Carl shook his head helplessly.
Now the truth is revealed.
I didn't expect that there would be such a big industry under the name of the confused.
But how should he count this?
Rich second generation or rich first generation?
......
Now that even the store has become his own, Carl feels that he can't do more than that.
So, that afternoon, as soon as the afternoon class was over, Carl called George and Fred and Hermione to go to the abandoned empty classroom on the third floor that had been used to hold the Hearthstone competition.
There is a lot of space there, and it is more convenient to talk and do things.
"Carl, you're ready to start, aren't you?" said George.
Carl nodded, "There should be a Hearthstone tournament this Friday, right? As you two said, it's just this time to take this opportunity to put the new version out, and the two of you will be responsible for the publicity." ”
Seeing George and Fred nodding, Carl looked at Hermione, "Hermione, you can make new heroes and cards with me, you already know a lot about combinatorial transfiguration, and now is the right time to practice." ”
After thinking about it, Hermione nodded.
Carl then said to the twins, "Time is a bit tight, you two can come and help when you have time." ”
The twins looked at each other and said to Carl, "We're free now, what do you need us to do?"
"It's simple, you just need to ......"
Carl began to tell the three of them that his production idea, the patent owner had been registered, and these three people were the three people he trusted the most, so he didn't have any secrets.
Actually, he wanted to invite Percy to join, and although he remembered the other heroes and cards of Hearthstone well, it was a bit tight on time to make a new version in less than a week.
Percy was a bit old-fashioned, but he was definitely an honor student, and his magical skills were among the best among the senior students at Hogwarts.
But he refused.
According to Percy, he had to maintain the face of his prefect.
However, he agreed to Carl to allow George and Fred to promote the new version of the game in the Gryffindor common room, and to open the door for them as a prefect if needed.
But fortunately, with the experience of the entire Christmas holiday last year, and the assistance of others, the development of this new version should be relatively smooth.
"I'm going to add three more heroes, the Hunter, the Paladin, and the Priest. ”
"Which of these heroes is the strongest, Carl?" asked George excitedly.
Carl shook his head, "I can't talk about which one is great, but the three heroes have their own characteristics. ”
"Hunters are the most aggressive, and if you play well, you can even end the fight before seven mana, but of course, there are other ways to play, and Paladins play mainly followers and melees, and there will be a variety of cards that increase the ability of their followers. ”
"As for the priest," Karl smirked, "he's the dirtiest." ”
"The dirtiest?" Fred wondered.
George and Hermione looked at him quizzically.
"You'll know when the time comes. ”
Carl drew the effect and appearance of each card on paper with a wand, and each of the four received a certain share of the card.
Then, on the blackboard in the classroom, I gave the three of them a lecture on the key points and precautions of combined transfiguration.
Needless to say, Hermione's level of magic is not to mention, and although she has only been enrolled for less than three months, the girl has already taught herself a lot.
I have to say that the girl's talent in magic is really very high, and she is also smart, plus Carl told her the key points of combining transfiguration before, she is the fastest to get started.
George and Fred, although they were slower to learn, were also very smart and talented, otherwise they wouldn't have come up with a Weasley magic trick on their own in the future.
Furthermore, combinatorial Transfiguration is not a profound magic, the key point is to sort out the logic, and the twins can almost be called the wizards with the clearest logic in the whole of Hogwarts.
Although the two of them were only in the third grade, and their own magical knowledge was still somewhat lacking, with Carl by the side of the teaching, it took five hours for the two to finally make their first cards.
The four of them fought until twelve o'clock in the evening, and even forgot to eat dinner.
George and Fred were completely immersed in the joy of making their own Hearthstone cards.
Hermione, on the other hand, was completely immersed in the thrill of writing algorithms with combinatorial magic.
After half a night of practice, she basically figured out the main points of combinatorial transfiguration, or magical programming.
Looking at the three cards in her hand, and then at the two cards in George and Fred's hands, Hermione frowned.
"Carl, how many cards do you need to make for the three new heroes?" she asked.
Carl wasn't involved in the production himself, and he had to recall the appearance and effects of all the cards.
Hearing Hermione's question, before Carl could speak, George preemptively said, "Each hero has twenty-five exclusive cards, and the three heroes have a total of seventy-five, I said Hermione, haven't you really touched Hearthstone at all?
Hermione ignored him, just secretly estimating in her mind.
What they're making now is just the most ordinary base card, and the characters and appearances involved are relatively simple, but even so, that's all they can do in one night.
Those higher-level cards are bound to take longer, and at this rate, even if they get more and more proficient later on, it will be difficult to make all the cards this Friday.
What's more, they can't just make one set, they have to make more later, although they only need to use copy spells later, but 75 cards, even if they are just copied with spells, it takes a lot of time, and it is almost impossible to develop a new version on Friday.
"Carl, we don't have enough men!"
